Political complications in Europe and their
depressing influence upon the markets there,
and especially the London stock market,
again became most important factor in
course of prices here. early morning ad
wees showed feverish and depressed condi-
ton among our securities upon the London
Exchange, and the confident feeling existing
last evening disappeared before the opening
of The board. There WAS again q pressure TO
sell by foreign houses, and all of the special
ties in which London is Interested were heavy
sufferers. AS usual, the room was on the
side of the dominant movement, and sales for
both sides OF the account were heavy. Deal
lngs during the first hour were accompanied
by considerable excitement. while the course
of prices WAS somewhat irregular. The de-
cline was checked when the pressure was re-
moved, which, however, was not until the
C ose of business on the other SIDE when other
influences than unfayOrable news from the
continent beoann potent, although there was
no encouragement in the progress OF neg0tia-
lions looking toward a settlement of labor
difficulties. Advices from Washington were
favorauiy received, stocks were more freely
supported, and an entire revulslon in the
temper OF speculation took place. Early
losses were entirely recovered under tree
covering of shorte, but reallzations toward
the close caused slight depression at that
time. New England again was the most
conspicuous stock on the list, and London
specialties came next IN order. The general
list however, was comparatively quiet. The
opening was decidedly weak. declines from
last evenings final figures being from 1st175
per cent, the latter in Reading. Louisville
and Nashville WAS conspicuously active and
weak from the opening, but the general list
was merely heavy but steady depreciation
took place. and by 1880 material declines
had been established After that time, how
ever, a better feeling prevailed, ana by the
delivery hour most stocks were at the highest

figures. a renewa, Of the depres son occurred

In warm summer weather many per-
sons feel an irresistible craving for some
thing sour, and often gratifying this de.
sire by free indulgence in pickles and
vegetables made acid with vinegar. This
demand for acid indicates a deficiency in
the acid secretions in the stomach, and
the demand for an artificial one is natu-
raj one, but vinegar is not the best sub
stitute. Lactic acid is one Of the chief
agents that give acidity to the gastric
Juice of the stomach in health. This is
the acid of sour milk, and, therefore, one
of the best summer diet drinks that we
can use is buttermilk. It satisfies the
craving for acids by giving the stomach a
natural supply. and at the same time fur
nishing in its cheesy matter good supply
of wholesome nutrition. A man will en-
dure fatigue in hot weather better on
milk than any drink he can use.

The railroads have begun late in the
season to fight fer mountain travel, and

Christian Words.
Palmetto Post.

We deem it eminently proper, as an il
lustration of the true spirit of Christian
ity, to allnde briefly to portion of th'
services at the Carteret-Street Methods
Church, Beaufort, on Sunday last. A
both of the services on that day, the Rev
E. J. Meynardie, the pastor. offered ur
eloquent prayers for the early and har
moiiious adjustment Of the unfortunate
disagreement and troubles which are now
agitating and perplexing an honorec
branch Of the Church of Christ. Gods
blessing was invoked upon the Episcopal
head and his people generally; "that bis
authority may be maintained and peace
restored and perpetuated among those
over whom he has the oversight"

The Star of bethlehem.

A dispatch from Lexington, KY, says :
"Professor John NJ. Klein, the Kentucky
astronomer, discovered the Star of Beth
Bethlehem Tuesday night at o'clock.
Its position is in the northwestern heav-
ems, closely skirting the horizon. Its
lustre is most intense. This is the same
star that guided the wise men of the East
to the manger where the infant Saviour
Law. It's period is about 800 years, and
astronomers have been on the lookout for
it for several years. Professor Klein
uses a smoked glass lens, without mir
ror, which enables him to detect comets
and other heavenly bodies lowering in
proximity to the sun. A comet can by
the Klein method be seen in daylight.
Little is known about this star, except
that its appearance was first recorded
about the time of Christs birth, ana that
it has appeared five times since. 1t is
said to be a star Of the first magnitude,
and visible even at MONDAY. Its orbit
has never been calculated"

Not Ny Own.
BY MARGARET r. SANGSTER.


Thine alone, entirely Thine,
Purchased by right divine,
Never more mine own to be;
Lord, l would be lost in Thee!
Thine my strength, or more or less,
Thine my hand, its work to bless;
Only Thine my passing days,
Thine my hours to fill with praise.
Not my own the gifts bring,
Tribute to my Lord and King,
Only mine as treasures lent,
For the Owner used or spent.
OFT 1t comes, oh ! blessed thought,
With a sliange delight inwrought,
Thine forever, Thine alone,
Lord OF life, and not my own!
When my spirit is perplexed,
When by devious currents veSed,
Calmly look up TO Thee.
Best of friends and guides to me.
Thou wilt keep me Thou wilt save,
Thou wilt make me ever brave,
In the utmost stress and strife
I may trust for death or life.
Never bearing pain or loss
But in shadow OF the Cross,
Never walking on alone.
Always with Thee, not my own!
Nothing would hold as mine;
Joy of joys, my Will Is Thlne;
Lord, the full surrender take,
Own the seal for Jesus sake.

A Simple Remedy.

The egg is considered one of the best
remedies for dysentery. Beaten mp light.
ly, with or without sugar, and swallowed
at a gulp, it tends, by its emolient quail
ties, to lessen the Inflammation of the
stomach and intestines, and by forming a
transient coating on those organs to ena.
BILE nature to resume her healthy sway
over diseased body. Two, or at the
most, three eggs per day would he all that
is required in ordinary cases; and since
the egg is not merely medicine, but food
as we'll, the ligher the diet otherwise and
the quieter the patient is kept, the more
certain and rapid is the recovery,

The same trouble comes to people Of
widely different employment. The the
atrical travellers, or troups, are having
violent grief over the fact that the opera
ton of the Interstate Commerce Law will
drive them out of business. If they can
get no special rates they cannot live, for
even now, with many kindnesses shown
them, they do not have remarkable pros
perity. But just when churches and re-
ligious people were rejoicing at the pros
poets of being delivered from the demor-
alization Of shows, the suggestion is made
that delegates to religious meetings will
share the sufferings Of the unhappy
tragedians, and that produces reflections
that are not so agreeable. 1t is almost
certain that the law will be so under
stood as not to interfere with either Of
them, but if it do, the Church can easily
bear the increased expense of it's conven-
tions, and should be glad to do so. 1t
would be cheap price to pay for killing
off much wickedness.-A.R II. Pres6yter-

FRANKFORT. FEBRUARY 10, 1887.
When the ROUNDABOUT wa:

WneH Tie NOUNDABOUI was
first introduced to this commu-
nifty, nearly ten years ago. it was
a rather small affair, but in Sep
tembcr, 1882, was enlarged to its
present size, owing to the increas-
ing demand upon our advertising
space. From time to time since
then we have been compelled to
issue a large supplement Or
double number in order to work
off the accumulation Of matter
We have determined, with this
issue, to make it an eight-page
paper of its present size, in order
to give our advertisers proper
space and to accommodate our
correspondents, reserving suffi-
cient room for editorial and local
matter, SO it may be safely said
that the prediction Of the late Col.
A. G. Hodges, in speaking of
our infant efforts in the newspaper
line, that the ROUNDABOUT would
some day grow to be an lover
coat" has been fulfilled. We
have a large list of subscribers at
every post-office in the county,
and their number has been
steadily increasing since the first
of January, SO we can offer to our
merchants an advertising medium
unsurpassed by any other paper
The ROUNDABOUT is read in
nearly every family in the county,
for everybody likes it and every
body takes it. Now is the time
to advertise your spring stock,
and this paper is the one in which
to do SO.
We would again urge upon our
regular correspondents the neces-
sity of sending in their letters
by Thursday morning of each
week, as we wish to give in each
issue the news from every pre-
cinct in the county, and we will
endeavor to keep our readers
posted upon all matters of local
interest, whether occurring in the
city or county.
In consideration of ourjextreme-
ly low subscription price, we
shall, in future, expect our SUBJ
scribers to pay in advance, and
any one failing to do so on, being
notified of his indebtedness, need
not be surprised if his paper is at
once stopped.
